Is this the reason Trey Burke was out of the league? Because all he wants to do is spam midrange jumpers out of pick-and-roll situations? Midrange jumpers are cool and all, but there’s a reason that there was a huge backlash against them starting around six or seven years ago: there’s usually a better shot…

If Andrew “32% Rookie Shooting Percentage” Harrison continues to play well, you know for a fact that his twin brother Aaron is gonna get another shot at the league. Brothers hook each other up with NBA gigs all the time because a familiar last name is way more likely to trigger something in a GM’s…

OFFICIAL DTB REMINDER: At certain points last season, John “Hell’s Hensman” Henson was getting DNP-CD’s from the now-departed Jason Kidd (who was a serial drunk). Greg Monroe and Miles Plumlee were stealing his minutes. A guy who can put up this kind of complete stat-stuffage (his final line: 19/18/3/0/2) should not be nailed to the…

Jarrett Allen has scored in double digits each of the last seven games. The Nets are 1-6 in that span, but you know it’s not Allen’s fault because it’s not like this dude can go out there and get buckets for himself. Like many “dunk-only” centers, he relies on his teammates to get throw him…

We’ve seen this before; small-ish dude happens to grab a bunch of rebounds in some random game, decides that he’s going to be a rebounder from now on, then goes hard on the glass in the next few games before the coaches tell him to leave the rebounds for the bigs. It happened with Westbrook…

I might have to reconsider Nicolas “Bad-dumb” Batum’s nickname. I’ve been working on it the whole season after seeing how bad and dumb he was being, polishing it up for release, and now that I’ve finally finished it, it’s not relevant anymore. This will be the only time it gets used, I think. I wonder…

I don’t feel like Moe “Moe Buckets” Harkless is getting enough criticism for what he did at the end of last season, an act that called into question the entire integrity of the NBA. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, thinking he punched a fan or something, let me clue you in: he…

DTB News Alert: it is hard to write a compelling description for this Mike Muscala 15-points video while watching Tom Brady cheat his way to another Super Bowl win. DTB News Alert part 2: NFL, if you’re scraping YouTube for incidences of people using the words “Super Bowl” and banning their accounts for infringing on…

I’m really, really sorry that I forgot to do a vid for Treveon “Telegraham” Graham scoring 14 a couple games ago. I was going to, but since I don’t believe in to-do lists or even the general concept of a list (lists are too… linear for me), I forgot. That is absolutely, totally, 99 percent…

Josh Jackson was, like, the one Suns player I could do highlights of where I wouldn’t be subjected to “proud to own the three-point zone” a million times per video. He was my sanctuary, my respite, and now he’s decided he wants to shoot threes so there goes that. Dammit dude, can’t you just forget…
